Guest SimonRich Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 There is a fire exit between two blocks of flats that is being constantly used for the wrong reasons. It was causing anti social behaviour and tresspassing which we need to address. I am aware that we cant lock a communal fire exit as such but is there any other way we can secure or restict the access it is providing? Can we place any anti tampering devices such as a glass smash bar system to the door or alarm it as such that could be controlled somewere by a call centre? I'm just scoping for options as to what we can do to prevent the fire escape being mis-used and only for its intended and proper use.

AnthonyB Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 You can add alarms, tamper ties, etc as in the link above. Secondary mechanisms (such as adding a Redlam Bolt) may be an option too, but this would be subject to risk assessment as it adds another action to release the door (ideally a single action should release a fire exit) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
